projects funded through the CED
program. The legislative requirement for
this program is in Title IV of the
Community Opportunities,
Accountability and Training and
Educational Services Act (COATS
Human Services Reauthorization Act) of
October 27, 1998, Public Law 105–285,
section 680(b) as amended. The PPR
collects information regarding the
outcomes and management of CED
projects. OCS will use the data to
critically review the overall design and
effectiveness of the program.
The PPR will continue to be
administered to all active grant
recipients of the CED program. Grant
recipients will be required to use this
reporting tool for their semi-annual
reports to be submitted twice a year.
Through a previous renewal, the current
PPR replaced both the annual
questionnaire and other semi-annual
reporting formats, which resulted in an
overall reduction in burden for the grant
recipients, significantly improved the
quality of the data collected by OCS,
and allowed grant recipients to become
accustomed to this format. OCS seeks to
renew this PPR to continue to collect
quality data from grant recipients. To
ensure the burden on grant recipients is
not increased, but that the information
collected demonstrates the full impact
of the program, OCS has conducted an
in-depth review of the forms and
requests minor changes to the PPR to
provide clarity to users filling out the
form.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is an
extension to a currently approved
information collection (IC). ACL is
responsible for administering the Title
VI A/B (Nutrition and Supportive
Service) and C (Caregiver) grants. The
purpose of this data collection is to
improve and standardize the format of
the application. The instrument will
collect data as prescribed by the Older
Americans Act Section 612(a), 614(a)
and 45 CFR 1326.19 related to the
eligibility of Federally recognized Tribes
and Native Hawaiian organizations for
grant funds under this program and
their capacity to deliver services to
elders.
The Older Americans Act,
Application for Title VI Parts A/B and
C Grants collects information on the
ability of federally recognized American
Indian, Alaskan Native and Native
Hawaiian organizations to provide

nutrition, supportive, and caregiver
services to elders within their service
area. Applicants are required to provide
a description of their organization’s
service area, the number of eligible
elders in their service area, and their
ability to deliver services and sign
assurances that the organization will
comply with all applicable laws and
regulations.
This is an extension of a currently
approved information collection. The
proposed data collection materials have
been updated to better align with the
requirements of the Older Americans
Act and Federal regulations, as well as
to improve data quality and grantee
accountability. Furthermore, this
grantee application will better line up
with the Title VI Program Performance
Report under 0985–0007. This data
collection will also support ACL in
tracking performance outcomes and
efficiency measures with respect to the
annual and long-term performance
targets established in compliance with
the Government Performance Results
Modernization Act (GPRMA).
Comments in Response to the 60-Day
Federal Register Notice
A notice published in the Federal
Register 87, No. 126 on Friday, July 1,
2022. There were No public comments
in response to the 60-day notice.
Estimated Program Burden: Title VI
funding is broken into three categories.
Parts A and B are for nutritional and
supportive programming, with Part A
being restricted to American Indian and
Alaska Native grantees, and Part B
restricted to Native Hawaiian grantees.
Part C is for caregiver programming. All
Part C grantees must have Part A/B

funding, but not all Part A/B grantees
will have Part C programs. Therefore,
there are likely to be 295 unique
respondents, but only 250 will have to
complete all three portions of the
application. This application covers all
three parts of Title VI.

in an annualized number of 270.4 hours.
Similarly, the total hours associated
with the Title VI, Part C, application is
375.

Information Collection Request Title:
Data System for Organ Procurement and
Transplantation Network (OPTN), OMB
No. 0915–0157—Revision.
Abstract: Section 372 of the Public
Health Service Act requires that the
Secretary of HHS, by contract, provide
for the establishment and operation of a
private, non-profit entity the OPTN,
which on behalf of HRSA, oversees the
U.S. donation and transplantation
system. The OPTN Board of Directors
(BOD) determines what data must be
collected to appropriately fulfill their
responsibilities pursuant to their
regulatory authority in 42 CFR 121.11 of
the OPTN Final Rule. HRSA, on behalf
of the OPTN BOD and in alignment with
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
submits OPTN BOD-approved data
elements for collection to OMB for
official federal approval.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: HRSA and the OPTN BOD
use data to develop transplant,
donation, and allocation policies; to
determine whether institutional
members are complying with policy; to
determine member-specific
performance; to ensure patient safety,
and to fulfill the requirements of the
OPTN Final Rule. In addition, the
regulatory authority in 42 CFR 121.11 of
the OPTN Final Rule requires the OPTN
data to be made available, consistent
with applicable laws, for use by OPTN
members, the Scientific Registry of
Transplant Recipients, HHS, and
members of the public for evaluation,

Frm 00066

research, patient information, and other
important purposes.
This is a request to revise the current
OPTN data collection which includes
time-sensitive, life-critical data on
transplant candidates and donors, the
organ matching process,
histocompatibility results, organ
labeling and packaging, and pre- and
post-transplantation data on recipients
and donors. This revision also includes
OPTN BOD-approved changes to the
existing OMB data collection forms. The
OPTN collects these specific data
elements from transplant hospitals,
organ procurement organizations, and
histocompatibility laboratories. The
OPTN uses this information to (1)
facilitate organ placement and match
donor organs with recipients, (2)
monitor compliance of member
organizations with federal laws and
regulations and with OPTN
requirements, (3) review and report
periodically to the public on the status
of organ donation and transplantation in
the United States, (4) provide data to
researchers and government agencies to
study the scientific and clinical status of
organ transplantation, and (5) perform
transplantation-related public health
surveillance including the possible
transmission of donor disease.
HRSA is requesting to make the
following OPTN BOD-approved changes
to improve the OPTN organ matching
and allocation process and improve
OPTN member compliance with OPTN
requirements:
(1) Adding data collection forms from the
OPTN donor management and organ
matching system to the existing OMBapproved information collection. The system
allows an organ procurement organization to
add donors, run the donor/potential
transplant recipients matches, and place a
donated organ(s) with a computer-matched
potential transplant recipient. Transplant
centers will access the system to view posted
donor information to assist them with
accepting decisions, along with other donor/
potential transplant recipient functions such
as entering offer responses and verifying
organ offer refusals. The OPTN donor
management and organ matching system is
comprised of eight data collection forms:
